“Black lives matter is the biggest rasist (sic) organisation (sic) since the clan (sic). Are you kidding me. Disgusting!!!”

The comment has since been deleted but it was published long enough for left wing informants to fly into action to punish the man for thinking differently from them. The comment was screen captured and forwarded to Muir’s employers at the University forcing them to issue formal statements condemning Muir’s Facebook comment. The vice mayor of Charlottesville Wes Bellamy seized upon the opportunity for making political hay by calling for a boycott of the restaurant owned by Muir. Bellamy may or may not be demanding that the University terminate Muir’s employment. The “oppressed” elected official also appears to be demanding that Muir attend some sort of re-education session to correct his wrong-thinking.

It is important to recognize that Muir’s comment is about the nature of an organization. An organization’s stated goal isn’t always an accurate representation of what an organization does. Black Lives Matter has distorted the facts of several police involved shootings in order to create the impression of systemic racism and renegade bigoted cops aiming to gun down innocent black people. The organization preaches Marxism and celebrates cop-killers and terrorists. Their rhetoric has encouraged the assassination of police officers in several American cities. It is entirely acceptable for someone, even a university professor, to hold a negative opinion of the group without being harassed by elected officials and without having his livelihood threatened. The online lynching of Muir and his opinion suggests that he makes a valid point.

Muir is reportedly on leave from the university and his whereabouts are unknown.
